American Timber and Steel is the supplier of choice
for your Laminated Timber requirements. Laminated
Timbers allow for small farm grown trees to be
utilized to make giant timbers, which are stronger
and less expensive than solid sawn timbers. These
Laminated Timbers can be manufactured in a couple
of ways.
Laminated Veneer Lumber (LVL) are layers of veneer,
glued together like plywood. They are designed for
interior header beams and scaffold plank type
applications. Our LVL’s are available in 1 3/4” to 3
1/2” thicknesses, widths from 7 1/2” to 24” and
lengths up to 60’. LVL’s are designed for interior use
only and are untreated.
Glulams are pieces of lumber which are glued together
to make a larger timber. They are designed for use
in both interior and exterior applications. In exterior
applications, Glulams should be treated with either
CCA or Pentachloraphenol. They are generally used
as support beams and columns. Glulams are available
in 3 1/8” to 8 3/4” thicknesses, widths from 6 7/8”
to 28 7/8”, while lengths are nearly unlimited,
depending on your projects requirements.
